Next season's models have been announced one after another, and some of you may have tried the models you care about at the test drive event?
For those of you who still want to know more about next season, we will introduce the hot topics of each manufacturer next season.
This time, "VÖLKL" held a joint test drive event between K2 Group and MDV at Niseko Moiwa Ski Resort from January 14th to 15th.
What kind of models will appear in the 2023-2024 season? We asked VÖLKL riders Hidemitsu Okada and Takumi Toyama about their favorite models.
Although it is a fat ski, it is active in hard burn! "REVOLT 114" appeared
Volkl "REVOLT" series for freestyle. Next season, the REVOLT 114, an intermediate model between the 104 and 121, which has become an immovable popular model, will appear. All models correspond to various situations, but it is now possible to use them more precisely. Compared to 121, it has a slightly stiffer flex, so it can handle hard burns and uneven terrain. Rider Hidemitsu Okada has been riding it since the beginning of this season, and it will be a highly recommended model for next season.
If you want to do freestyle movements, this is it! "REVOLT 96"
Next is the appearance of “REVOLT 96”. This model, which is the successor to the conventional REVOLT 95, has been active in free runs, parks, and grouting. This time, the thickness of the edge has increased, and the durability in the jib has also improved. While maintaining stability, the suppleness of the top and tail matches more freestyle movements.
Rider Takumi Toyama (Kin-chan) recommends the length to be "your height or a little shorter". If you are interested, let's try it at the test drive event.
